If you're hoping to improve your singing, learning from the most talented worship singers would be the best place to start.


One artist who has been widely recognized and admired for her unique voice is Kari Jobe. The Grammy-nominated worship artist and songwriter is known for her angelic and delicate voice, which has drawn many people into worship. It's easy to understand why so many aspire to sing like her.


Start by analyzing your voice. Sing the same phrase several times while recording yourself each time and then listen back to each recording. This exercise can help you spot your weaknesses and find ways to correct them. After finding your flaws, determine your vocal type, whether you're a soprano, mezzo-soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, or bass. Knowing your vocal range can help you select songs that will be comfortable for you to sing.


Kari Jobe's songs require excellent vocal control and agility. Her signature technique is her breathy, airy, and intimate sound, and she often uses smooth transitions between her head and chest voice. For example, in the song "Revelation Song," she displays her range by moving from her middle to high register. Another crucial element of her style is vibrato, which she uses skillfully to add some emotions to her performance.


Breathing is crucial to singing well, and Jobe's style of singing relies heavily on proper breath control. Work on breathing exercises to enhance your lung capacity to control breath support during long and demanding singing sessions. The "Farinelli breathing" exercise can help develop your breath support. Also, practicing ribcage expansion exercises during warm-up is recommended.
